"The PFA does not represent players when they have broken the law and been convicted on non-football matters."- Gordon Taylor in 2009 following Marlon King's release after a prison sentence for sexual assault & ABH

A bit like Goughy earlier, sometimes feel LGBT groups, and indeed other diversity groups, sometimes wield a bit more power and influence than proportion suggests.... At the moment at work we're getting the LGBT stuff forced down our throats a bit (not literally, though I did have sausage for lunch), and when the business is spending money on that and making cuts elsewhere, if anything its causing more resentment than mending bridges. The argument being 'just because someone is openly announcing their sexuality, i'm not going to treat them any differently, they are still either a mate or not'.... However the fact that our generation can see it as such a non issue shows what leaps and bounds the mentality of our generation is ahead of those 20-30 years ago, and its groups like this who we can thank.

I'm sure we can all trot out the 'some of my best friends are gay line', thats because its true, find its now such a non issue beyond elder people.... and of course societies cretins, but usually they are beyond educating bar signing a claim form.

However, ****ing hate screaming queens.... Just because your running around like Paris Hilton with a nutsack does mean people will like you. Ms Hilton is surrounded by people because she's rich and goes like a barn door in a gale....

Find overtly macho and hetero 'lads' just as annoying as overtly camp people tbh.

Moreso, IMHO. Say what you like about the archetypal spoon, they very rarely carry the threat of violence with them.

Agreed. It's fair to point out that people acting like bell-ends in an effort to express how gay they are is annoying. But lots of straight people act like even bigger bell-ends to express how straight they are too, so it doesn't really have anything to do with their sexual preference. It's just annoying people being annoying.

EDIT: Type in Westboro Baptist Church to google if you want someone to hate on. A really nice website pops up.
